Product Designer (Discovery)
Accrue Savings is a consumer fintech company on a mission to help Americans save. We believe that rewards, points and incentives shouldn’t only come from paying with credit. We help smart brands and retailers incentivize shoppers with cash rewards when they save up for both big and ongoing, smaller purchases. Accrue Savings is backed by a fantastic set of VCs and angels, and has a large number of early retailer customers, led by an experienced founder and operator with a growing team. We’re looking for curious, self-starters, who are determined to drive an idea from inception to market.
The Product Designer will report to the Chief Technology Officer and will help set design direction across all current and future Accrue Savings products and experiences. This is an opportunity for a designer to grow in a fast-paced, dynamic environment. Successful candidates will meld their passion for designing visually appealing products, thinking strategically to establish Accrue’s design culture and process.
